Friday Jazz BANG party (3 May)

Welcome to Jazz BANG. Let's get to know each other. Ruby's Dance Hall has become a hub for balboa and live jazz in Sydney, hosting regular parties and workshops, as well as weekly classes. The floor is perfectly worn in (smooth wood and easy on the knees), there's a comfortable seating area for non-dancing guests, and breweries, trains and buses are only a short walk away. Dress for comfort (smart casual if you like specifics), BYO alcohol, and be sure to introduce yourself to as many people as possible. Let's dance! http://jazzbang.com.au/parties.html --Music-- Andrew Dickeson takes the Blue Rhythm Band rhythm section and adds some light and colour. What will the band be like? Sam asked: "Can you make it friendly music, to welcome everyone to the weekend, but give us all the tempos and the good exciting feels?" And Andrew said "Yes." We're lucky enough to welcome Sydney vocalist Katey Wadey to the microphone, giving her the solid, swinging support of a very capable dance band. What does Katey sound like? Here, have a listen. Drums: Andrew Dickeson Bass: Ash Turner Piano: Peter Locke Saxophone/clarinet/vocal: Brad Child Vocal: Kate Wadey
